GLASSBERK Glass filter media
It replaces the traditional sand media applied in all filters.
it is produced to obtain the optimal particle size and shape from a specific type of glass that is 100% recycled. Its slippery surface purifies small particles by attracting them 300 times more than sand thanks to its electrostatic negative charge(zeta potential). In addition, the glass mineral has a permanent redox potential metal oxide catalysts that self-sterilize.
In this way, it helps to separate metal oxides and other target elements from 4 times more water than sand.
It has a longer service life than sand due to the fact that it does not contain bacteria and organic waste on its surface.
Main Benefits Compared to other sands: Because it is lighter than sand, you can fill your filters with a 20% savings. Since it has a higher wear strength than sand, its service life is 4 times longer. It provides savings from other chemicals with its purification performance.
Lower chlorine consumption compared to sand and disinfection by-products. it saves a serious amount of water and energy. It does not cause calcification, clumping and petrification. In this way, it prevents the formation of channels and biological contamination. The sands retain bacteria and algae over time. Bacteria and algae cannot cling to the glass sand. It makes the water up to 30% clearer. It filters up to a few microns at 100% efficiency without filtration aids.
It is suitable in drinking water treatment, sewage and wastewater treatment.
